Why has Claude become "your personal lawyer"? Why Claude as Your Personal Lawyer?

Anthropic has officially released 12 legal Skills built right into Claude.

Leases, partnerships, freelance work — all of it with no lawyer and no fees.

Of course, it's not a full replacement for a specialized lawyer, but it helps you understand what you're signing and ask the right questions.
